Oh, yes, looking here, clicking "Supported products" tab, it seems your video is supported by my PET package:

The nvidia driver pet installed without a problem. Using nvidia-settings tool reported a segmentation fault. I have the proper resolution. Here is the report-video output.

Just like 18, Everything checked/tested good out of the box. BTW, What did you do to the B43 driver? It works faster than everyone else's!

I don't want to overload you guys with Quirkies to test! But, here is one just for those with Nvidia hardware, live-CD with Nvidia driver included:

Downloaded 022,burned disk,and booted with pfix=ram.

Tried probe and chose proper resolution but got mouse pointer on a black screen.
CTL-ALT-BACK to get to the prompt and ran xorgwizard again.This time I tried choose and chose nvidia,it worked.

Testing your q22 now. Behave like q21

no jerky or choppy or delay. Omelette takes 5 sec.

I guess I want the GL so I stick with q21. I have ditched Q13 now in favor of Q21

I got radio going now. Nolt sure why if failed when I posted it. Maybe the server was overloaded at the local radio station but norway failed too.

The geode 2.11.7 of the build has the "no desktop icons bug".
The newer 2.11.8 version solves this issue.
Lucid puppy has it and works fine.
Pls include in an upcoming quirky version if you can.

PowerOn blinky is in the dock, eth0 is ok
Restart blinky is finicky, sometimes yes, most times no and Connect does not see eth0. PowerOff then PowerOn and eth0 is ok

Hi all,
@BarryK
Barry, there is still something amiss with xorgwizard.
You may not remember but in the Q013 thread I reported that after following your instructions,dated 31/3/10, the X05 would run with the Intel i810 driver.
In the Quirky 018 thread I reported that no matter what I did xorgwizard would revert to the vesa driver.
Again in Quirky 021 xorgwizard reverts to the vesa driver. This time it does remove the intel driver from /usr/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules/drivers and inserts the i810 driver, but it applies the vesa driver.
I tried changing vesa to i810 in xorg.conf, but that did not work. Had to run xorgwizard to get graphics.
Any suggestions?
Cheers
